I haven’t posted anything since the New Year came to us, so technically this is my first post for 2012. I thought this is the best opportunity to start anew, so I moved my old posts on a separate folder, set up a new blog and post this customary first post. I have rebooted, so to speak.
I am a very childish decision maker. I change themes all the time like it holds no importance to the direction of my blog and then I activate the old themes again, I switch blogging styles from traditional lengthy posts to tumblr-like microblogging. Most of the time I spend twitching the back-end of this blog without giving much importance on what really matters the most: the content. And when I do the content, it sucks. So my New Year’s resolution is hopefully I’ll be able to produce more quality posts this year, and make less eye candy.
So what’s the topic, you’d ask. Well, I have done some keen observations of myself lately, and I found out that I really am an attention whore. I initially thought I was just exaggerating when I branded myself like that, but when I paid attention to what I do say in a conversation, regardless of to whom I am speaking, it’s always about me. I always talk about me. I never cared to listen to other people and what they wanted to say. I never became so interested about them. Socially speaking that’s not so good. So instead of doing that thing in real life, I’ll be talking more about me here instead. So basically nothing’s changed, since my past posts have always been about me, myself and I. I just hope that this new mentality would suck the selfish jerk out of me when I am having actual conversations with people.
Unlike before I may not be able to post that frequent if I want to keep my promise for this year. But then again, my posts aren’t that frequent anymore, so there’s nothing new with that. I will also disable the comments until further notice, since no one’s leaving a comment anyway. Notice that I am not finalizing anything on this, because my future self might do something stupid, making my present- (and eventually, past-) self look silly.
I know this is a bit late, but let me say it anyway. Welcome 2012. Let’s go.
